GI Joe fans! When I was a kid I had a pretty decent collection of G.I. Joe's and vehicles that I coveted. A lot of it saw a lot of action and a lot of it not so much. My brother started the collection back in the early 80's starting in the first series and then passed it on to me. I played with it all until my early teens. What was left went into storage until a few years ago when I rescued it from my parents attic. That being said, it isn't all perfect. parts have been lost and parts have been broken. Some of the items have survived without a scratch. This collection started back in 1982 and expanded until around 1989. It is now time to let it all go!
I am not a collector to the extent that I'm sure many of you are. So, hopefully as I part with my childhood memories here, they will find happy homes in the hands of true enthusiasts be it for display, parts, as play things, or whatever your hearts desire. I will be widdling this collection down until it's all gone. I will be pricing this stuff as fairly as I can as I am not trying to get rich off of it. Just want every one to be happy. I will be posting in here as often as I can with something new for sale at random with the best possible descriptions as I can give. So, let's enjoy and let the shenanigans begin! Here is item #1 1988 Warthog AFIV. This came toward the end of my collecting days so it is in great condition. Probably a 9 out of 10 as far as unboxed collectables go. A little warping of the rocket turret but overall, nothing is broken. All hatches open smoothly. No stickers are peeling and wheels still roll. No doubt it still floats. Sergeant Slaughter is also in pretty decent condition and still has his hat. Let me know if you need more pictures. Price: $15 Buyer pays shipping. Please add 4% for Paypal and boxing. |

Here is Item #2
An original Skystriker from 1983. One of my personal favorites growing up. This Skystriker is about an 8 out 10. It is mostly complete and is only missing the parachutes from the backs of the seats and the front landing gear cover. The hinge that holds the glass canopy is broken off so the canopy does fall off. The rear tail rudders are present but they were removed a long time ago when this stuff went into storage so that they wouldn't break off. Only one of the tabs were broken off. All the missiles are there and no mounting tabs are broken off. The landing gear operates perfectly along with the wings. The seats are present and in good shape. No back pegs are broken. The decals are all there but some are faded. Ace is actually in pretty good condition considering his rubber band broke and his helmet is missing. He is included with the Skystriker. Price: $70 Buyer pays shipping. Please include 4% for Paypal and boxing. |

Here is item #3
The Cobra Night Raven from 1986. This is an awesome jet. It didn't see a lot of use when I was a kid because I just liked looking at it more than playing with it. This one is also an 8 out of 10. It is mostly complete. All the weapons are there. The left rear wheels are missing and the tires on the right rear are missing but the wheels themselves are there. The front landing gear is broken off where it clips into the hull but the gear itself is actually there. The cockpit still there and slides up and down as it should. The pod on the back of the plane is in near perfect shape. Strato Viper is in decent shape. His joints are still pretty tight and his original rubber band is still intact (for now). Some of his painted areas are worn but overall he's in good shape. Price: $55 Buyer pays shipping. Please include 4% for Paypal and boxing. |

Just wanted to share a quick note… I am willing to wheel and deal on this stuff. I'm not totally married to these prices. Feel free to PM if you have any questions.
Thanks for looking! |
